Chapter 1 Book Excerpt:
Tuesday morning, Summer Reed was in Summer's Bridal Fashions lobby when in walked the finest African American male she had ever seen. After retrieving her mail, Summer returned to her office. He stopped at the receptionist desk. "I am here to meet with Summer, kindly let her know that Derrick Hamilton is waiting."
"And who are you, Derrick Hamilton?"
"I am an architect Summer is considering hiring. She probably forgot to pencil me in for you."
Beverly buzzed Summer's phone.
"Yes Beverly."
"I have a nice looking gentleman here for you. He says that his name is Derrick Hamilton."
"He must be with Hamilton Architectural Designs. Let Mr. Hamilton know that I'll be with him in a moment."
"Okay. And for your information Summer, Derrick Hamilton is also a local single minister. Barbara and I attended a New Year's watch night service at Grace Missionary Baptist Church where Mr. Hamilton resides as the senior minister. He's quite a dynamic speaker."
Summer walked out of her office, strolled down the hall, and then back out into the lobby. He noticed Summer approaching and then stood to his feet. She walked over to him.
"You must be the lovely Summer Reed."
"Yes I am."
"Well, I am going to be your architect."
"Slow down Mr. Hamilton. Why don't you follow me back to my office?"
